Honour Awards

The Honour Awards is an annual event which acknowledges outstanding service to, or achievement within NSW’s lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex (LGBTI) community. The SGLBA is proud to be associated with the annual Honour Awards.

Every day, people and organisations from across our community help others in all kinds of ways. The Honour Awards are about acknowledging individuals, groups, and companies that have contributed to the richness of the LGBTI community over any given year.

All awards recognise the work of a person or organisation that has provided leadership or achieved outstanding success within the LGBTI community or has provided excellent service or made a significant contribution to the LGBTI community.

The SGLBA has proudly sponsored the Honour Business award since 2010. We believe it is important to support ACON and The Aurora Group in the spirit of community collaboration. Our congratulations to previous winners of the Honour Business award, listed below.

In 2012 Richard Ezomoh relocated to Australia to escape the persecution of homosexuals in his native Nigeria where he was in grave danger due to his HIV prevention and support work with gay and homosexually active men in the country. Since moving to Australia, Richard bravely continued to work to reduce HIV transmission and support people with HIV among Australia’s Nigerian refugee population, where attitudes to homosexuality remain hostile. He was recognised with the Young Achiever’s Award at the 2015 Honour Awards.
